I forgot to post this gem. Traded in my E6X 843 MBR and got a 2016 GLX 843 MBR. I can't say enough about how well this rod is built. About as close to a custom as you can get. Balance is amazing and the sensitivity is very close to my 7'3" PB rods. Dragging a 10" worm over timber felt great.

Rod loads so perfectly. 3/8 oz total weight is this rods honey spot! I've got my Exsence DC on it for now. Still not sure what reel is going on it yet.

I have an 842 MBR GLX, and I have to agree with you- that rod is seriously something special. So lightweight and well-balanced, hooksets are fast, accurate and easy and the sensitivity is terrific.

The 842 MBR is next on my list. I have the 852 JWR. Its great for deep water, but I'd love to  have a slower tipped 2 power for weightless plastics.

This one, probably not. Especially for what I paid for it. This was one of those reels that I really like for some reason, but turned it back in to BPS to get a Chronarch E.

Why, actually, yes it is. A Gen 2 Abu for that matter.

Well, for one thing you said "This was one of those reels that I really like for some reason".  That evidence would hold up in a court of law.  lo

I actually liked the Gen SX. Was a tough SOB, and felt good in the hand. Will make a good truck beater.

Definitely better than the Gen 3 version. Should do good for what you want.
